My primary research focus lies in exploring the semantic and referential meaning within speech, particularly within narrative structures. I specialize in studying these aspects in clinical populations afflicted with schizophrenia and related psychotic disorders. My objective is to unravel the functioning of diverse linguistic mechanisms in these individuals, while also drawing comparisons with neurotypical counterparts. To accomplish this, I employ Natural Language Processing (NLP) computational tools and predominantly work with Python programming.
and I studied Industrial Engineering and Economics at the University of Chile, graduating in 2013. After that, I worked as a Research Analyst doing economic and data analysis for several years. In 2018, I moved to Barcelona to pursue a Master's degree in Theoretical and Applied Linguistics at the Universitat Pompeu Fabra. I'm currently doing my PhD under the supervision of Professor Wolfram Hinzen, where I'm researching the use of narrative coherence and disfluency as clinical markers of cognitive dysfunctions.
